    I talked with Chad over past couple of days.... He said that the maiden of the Yak 3u went good, with the electric power system, but it ballooned terribly on landing. He then told me that when he rolled it inverted, it climbed oike wild fire. Well, there if the ballooning on landing. He put...

    ZDZ 112 Champion mounting

    Im hoping not to use any throttle to start this engine. I will not have an engine that requires the use of throttle to start. I feel it is unsafe to use anything over an idle setting for starting. But...... Different strokes for different folks.

    ZDZ 112 Champion mounting

    Need to get a few more pics of the mounting and making a template. I somehow misplaced the ZDZ template from the Extra, and the one from my Corvus doesn't allow the center lines to match up. Engine bolted right up with my hand drawn and drilled template! ;)

    I said from the beginning, to myself, that I would post up a thread on the ZDZ 112 Champion. For those that don't know, or knew..... I won a FaceBook contest that ZDZ in the Czech Republic put on back in Feb. I finally received my 112 a few weeks ago, and after staring at it for a few days in...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    The 29" prop will rip at a lower RPM than a 27" prop. Going bigger wont counteract the prop rip, unless you load it up with alot of pitch.

    Most ignition units will handle 6V just fine. If it is a RCExl style, I would stay with what you have going right now. If it aint broke, dont fix it! :)
